The Good Flock/Jardins Florian tote bag was conscientiously designed to look slick and sophisticated without leaving a significant environmental footprint in the process.
Made from a only two materials, a blend of vegetable tanned leather and a waxed cotton canvas, the bag is minimalist in design, biodegradable and uses no zippers or other enclosures. It is held closed by a flap near the handles of the bag and is available in two color variations: navy blue with natural leather or black canvas with black leather straps.
While the materials used are minimal, the bag itself is not boring and incorporates little details that highlight its quality craftsmanship rather than flaunting elaborate designs.
The bag was handcrafted in the U.S. and is a limited edition run which will eventually be followed up by an expanded collection.
